For Further Research

Out of all my references , i do recommend those 4, since they are more in dept for that specific issue. Some researchers were done, recarding misogeny and its influence in society , role modeling and its' impacts, etc. Also most of them have analytic point of you regarding the results and the consequences  to support the evidences .If you are interested in methods , or even in more specific numbers , you can visit the Journal ones. The Third reference though is a book , (the sixth edition of it), which I personally have it in printed, but I think you can easily find it online , as well. For me that was the best source since is not only mention and indicate how music affect society , in different point of views, but obviously is reffered to a lot of issues regarding how media affect society, either positevely or negatively.

Misogyny seems to be a part of most rap songs since an example is the rapper Eminem who in one of his albums  The Marshall Mathers LP , in which awarded with  Grammy in 2001 , the lyrics contain extremely antipathy and violent toward women(Weitzer & Kubrin , 2009,p.3).
